Lee's appearance at the latest game fulfilled New York Knicks' shooting Josh Hart's wish. During the 'Roommates Show' podcast, when asked about OG Anunoby's impressive performance on April 6, Hart credited it to the gymnast's presence. He also requested the Olympian and actress Anne Hathway to frequently visit their games.

"We need Suni or Anne Hathway at every game during this playoff run."

"I have learned through the high highs and low lows that I will never be the Suni I was before – because I am a stronger Suni than I ever thought I could be," Lee expressed. "When it comes to your health, it is so important to advocate for yourself, to use your voice even when it is shaking." (via Olympics.com)
